Only thing he is entitled to is a prison cell from which he cannot escape
The US is fucked.
Always has been.
yes we are
When will the American public use the guns they’ve been hording to protect themselves against tyranny, against the tyranny?
they dont see conservatives as tyrants. Conservatism is a team-based ideology. Those on the team have leave to break the law with impunity, and are even lauded for it. It only becomes a problem with progressive liberals try to do it, then it’s wrong and worthy of insurrection.
They apparently elect some fascist egoist and want to rule the world. How can they be so utterly narrowminded… they cannot even think about the WHOLE of human kind on this tiny ball in this split second of it’s excistance and act accordingly? Is this counrtry really that stupid? WTF is going on??? Did evolution made an error with these ppl? I am worried, dissapointed and angry about the devolution they create. We are easily 85 years back in time.
this is what you get when you elect piss hitler. Next is annexation of greenland and after that likely ww3 if people continue to be apathetic.
Barack Obama has the chance to do something pretty funny here
Could nature and biology please take care of Trump, please. Before billionaires fund, find and can afford life-extending drugs and live for 200 years.
Trump isn’t the problem, he’s a symptom, US imperialism, capitalism, western chauvinism and nearly a century of liberalism led us here. We need to remove the ruling class from power, hold them accountable, restore justice, and create a new future, free from the corrupting influence of capitalism
Retroactively granting him the 2020 term, and in exchange terminating the current one would be a fine deal.
Saw this coming a bajillion miles away.
European here. Is a third term actually illegal/unconstitutional or is it “just” defacto illegal/unconstitutional?
It’s the 22nd Amendment
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once
Pretty unambiguous.
Extending his rein would mean he either Stops Elections, gets the constitution amended, or most insidious… just refuses to transfer power, and seeing if our military is actually complicit with the pedophile class against its own citizenry.
Jan 6 is going to completely embolden them to try again. Is there enough MAGA to make it happen again despite it all?
EDIT: extended rant
The wording on that second part confuses me but Canadian here so I’ve only ever voted in elections for local representation as we don’t vote for prime minister the Crown’s representative picks them. Does the vice president just get to serve the rest of the term without actually being elected? I honestly just assumed a second election was held and the vice president served in the interim.
The second part means that if you took over as President during someone else’s term (for example if you were VP when the President died and you took over) and served for two years or more of that term, you can only serve one more term. So however you become President, you can’t serve more than two terms.
What if he just changes the length of a term?
That’s a part of the Constitution itself, Article II, Section I, Clause I

Not American, but yes. You can look at the wiki if Lyndon Johnson who became president after JFK was killed.
Thank you
I believe an amendment to the constitution forbids it, but I’m not 100% sure
Please don’t downvote someone for being correct but unsure.
Someone answered its in the 22nd ammendment
Anything is possible if you are a felon with no morals and a bunch of slobbering wannabes.
Entitled? So the narccisist of narccisists is now also the Karen of karens.
Long term effect of not seriously holding this man accountable for Jan 6. He thinks he is untouchable.
Until the asswipe, Dietrich Klagges, found a way to get The Little Fucking Austrian Corporal German citizenship through the Braunschweig State Parliament.
Damn this must win the top prize for the category ‘aged like milk’.
I’ve been reading through histroy from the begining and I haven’t got that far yet but I’m glad they stopped him before he did anything bad. Anyway I just got to Nero becoming emperor what a loving son and kind man.
Until proven otherwise, he is.
Well, based on extended measurements: He is.
And, unfortunately, he’s correct.
Republicans stopped any kind of accountability and are not firing him now. They can stop him at any second.
To Trump: Technically you’re NOT entitled to a third term, as you’re inelligible to run for a third term. Sincerely, all Americans
To Trump:
TechnicallyConstitutionally, you’re NOT entitled to a third term, as you’re inelligible to run for a third term. Sincerely, all AmericansY’all gotta make sure term length can’t be redefined
You’re going to end up with presidential term limits like copywrite law
article II, section 1, paragraph 1 of the Constitution of the United States of America:
The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows:
It’s not even in an amendment, it’s defined in the original text. No way he gets enough states together to ratify an amendment to increase his term length.
Maybe “anyone who’s President are only allowed two consecutive or non-consecutive terms with no way to run for an additional term”, perhaps?
The 22nd amendment of the United states constitution, fully ratified in 1951, begins as such:
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
Term length is set to four years for the President and his VP in Article II, Section 1 of the constitution itself (original text) and has not been amended or altered.
Trump needs 38 state legislatures to ratify an amendment, he doesn’t and won’t ever have that.
Yeah, but you still have to make sure a “term” isn’t suddenly 50 years long by some mechanism
Four-year terms
Thx Chuck Schumer!
We should stop calling them “trump allies” and start calling them “trump axis.”
We already have a name for them, it’s the GOP. Grand Old Pedophiles
Gaslight, Obstruct, Project.
Things are crazy enough that the last term might need to be more like… ProjectPedoPhilia?
And that could double as a nickname for Project 2025!
